    description
    Right ball return rollunders are [[gameplay-feature:rollunders]] doing a gate's work on the right of the playfield: the U-shaped wireform hangs in the ball's return path, swings up as the ball passes beneath it and closes a switch on the way.[1] The appeal is that one part does two jobs. A plain [[gameplay-feature:ball-return-gates]] only keeps the ball moving the right way, and a [[gameplay-feature:rollovers]] switch only scores; a rollunder in a return lane scores the passage and holds the one-way discipline at the same time,[2] and it fits where a narrow rollover channel will not.[3]

    It's a wireform, generally U-shaped, hanging inside a metal frame. A ball passing through this frame will push the wireform to make it swing and close a switch under the playfield.

    a rollunder is a switch triggered by the ball rolling under it, sometimes presenting as a one-way gate to prevent, for instance, a launched ball from rolling back into the plunger lane

    Rollunders can be used in places too wide for a narrow rollover channel, or at one end of a ramp, or in any place where a rollover switch is desired but would not fit.
